Social Responsibility
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Handmade is heartfelt. We are committed to doing things better every day – creating a great place to work for our team members, continuously improving the sustainability of our products and operations, and giving back to the communities we’re proud to call our own. We have a deep sense of stewardship for managing our resources and maximizing our positive social impact.
At JOANN, we value what makes you unique. We want everyone to be their authentic selves in our stores, distribution centers, offices, and other workplaces. We want everyone to be comfortable and confident because when you feel your best, you bring your best. We celebrate what makes you – you.
ETHICAL SOURCING
“We source products from all over the world and one of the most important things that we can do
is actually make sure that they are being produced in the best possible way. In terms of how the
factory workers are treated, the wages that they’re paid and most importantly the sustainability
of the factories that we do business with. We hold our factories to the very highest standards,
very similar to retailers that are much, much larger than ourselves. And that’s because we believe
very deeply that we want our products to come from a very good place because we know they’re
going to go to a great place whenever they get here in the U.S.“
